Exception running enterprise-search for first time

Elastic Search
1

Hi all - I have a local elasticsearch server running and have followed all the steps when installing enterprise-search. My config is as follows:

ent_search.auth.source: standard
elasticsearch.username: elastic
elasticsearch.password: 12345
allow_es_settings_modification: true
secret_management.encryption_keys:
  [12345]
ent_search.external_url: http://127.0.0.1:3002

When I run ENT_SEARCH_DEFAULT_PASSWORD=passwordexample bin/enterprise-search, I receive the following erro:

Has anyone run into this AddElasticsearchUsernameAndAuthSourceToUser migration error before? Any help would be really appreciated, thanks!

Edit: I'm running java version 11 and this is based on fresh install of latest elasticsearch / enterprise-search on mac

Hi @spetri! That error indicates that there's an existing user in an invalid state. There shouldn't be any existing users during a fresh install, so I'm surprised you're hitting it. I would try clearing out your elasticsearch instance (at least the enterprise search indices: .ent-search-*) and reinstalling enterprise search.
